    Giggling every sketch, sounds like someone I've seen on SNL before. I think he got his own talk show and he is, ironically, not funny...

    I went through the Jimmy Fallon is not funny phase. Watch his late night show. He's pretty damn funny...

    I agree. His late night show shouldn't work at all, given that he's hosting it, but he gets really good guests for the 12:30 and uses The Roots really well.

    I wonder how much writing he does ... he could be hitting home runs in the writers room for skits he's not in.

    But then why wouldn't he be writing himself into those skits?

    I've read that Armisen is a HUGE favorite with the cast because he makes them laugh. If that's the case, they're the only ones.

    I heard Sandberg on a podcast go on and on about what a great guy Armisen is... I wanted to yell, "Yeah, but he sucks..."

    Sorry, but I don't get all the Armisen hatred.

    Now explain to me why Armisen is still doing Obama.

    He's always made my skin crawl.

    Add the fact that he was a couple with Abby Elliott, and I REALLY don't like the guy.
     
  11. Being a SNL cast member can be a pretty cut-throat affair.

    Just ask Charles Rocket

    Not sure if that crack is more obscure or cruel

    Hey, it's honest.
